Default Intake/Full Exhaust - This Everything?

Ordering my LS6 intake, LS6 valley cover, Pacesetter LTs and TSP TDs. So far this is all I have in my 'cart' I can't think of anything else but I KNOW I'll forgot something:
Lts, tds, intake, valley cover (obviously)
Valve Cover Plug (part 12568011)
2x24" o2 extensions
coolant crossover pipe
ngk tr6s

^just doesn't seem like enough stuff

I will reuse my stock header gaskets, and by doing the exhaust and intake at the same time I shouldn't need any block off plates for the emissions stuff correct?

as long as you have the race version headers. Then i think you would have to toss the AIR stuff. Dont hold me to it.

When you remove the old PCV you disconnect the line that goes to the driver's side valve cover, http://ls1howto.com/index.php?article=18 is where I'm getting the info for the swap.

Oh, he's doing the PCV delete with the Valley cover mod.
Plug is for the drivers side valve cover PCV fitting.
I wanted to do that, but I'm getting a catch can instead.

Yeah, if your nuking the AIR and EGR and getting the race headers you don't need anything more, as far as I remember.

Oh yeah, you'll need a heated garage. Installs in this weather is not fun.

instead of 02 extensions, get the rear corvette bosch 02's, part 13111 , (avail at any autozone, advanced auto parts, etc) there a little more expensive but well worth it, esp if your not going to have cats.

get some good gaskets for the headers too, if your pacesetters came with the paper ones just throw em in the trash...

Nothing necessarily, the Vette ones I've read have a "more accurate" operating range, or are heated better or something, along with the fact that they are already long enough to work with LT's make them appealing.
So its kindof win/win, if you look at it as you getting new/better sensors, along with the extensions in one package.
